My college internship with IBM led me into a career in the IT world. I was exposed to C\C++\assembly programming in college and it was always something that interested me. I’ve recently used online resources to learn modern full stack web development including React.js and Node.js. I have also been interested in blockchain technology and completed ConsenSys Academy's blockchain course where the final project was to create a decentralized web application on the Ethereum blockchain using Solidity smart contracts.
Open to remote work. BSEE from University of Texas at Austin.
Currently learning Rust to build on the Solana and NEAR blockchains.

Blockchain Developer

Personal Software Engineering Projects Oct 2018 - Feb 2019 · 5 mos

Built decentralized application using JavaScript/HTML/CSS as the front end with web3.js and smart contracts written in Solidity deployed on an Ethereum test network on the back end. Using the truffle framework, tests are written using JS promises for unit testing, and contracts also compiled and migrated using truffle. Transactions are signed using MetaMask. The app admin can add band managers who can then add songs to the storefront. Visitors to the site can make purchases, using Ethereum.
